SHE'LL TAKE IT: Impressed with a tasty sandwich, Oprah Winfrey decided to invest in the Art Cafe and Bakery. That's right: She's buying a restaurant after eating one of its sandwiches. "It turns out this was the most expensive sandwich I've ever had," Winfrey said Sunday after a restaurant photo shoot for the October issue of her magazine, O. A few weeks ago, Winfrey ate a chicken curry sandwich from the cafe, which is in central California, and was overwhelmed. She offered to buy the place.

Christina Aguilera canceled her spring tour with Chingy, but she's still getting love from her European fans. Aguilera was named woman of the year at the annual Glamour Women of the Year Awards in London, ananova.com reports. The fashion magazine also honored Keira Knightley as film actress of the year and "Sex and the City" star Kim Cattrall as U.S. TV actress of the year. Speaking of Knightley, she's set to star in the upcoming big-screen adaptation of Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice."

"The series ended with pathos and deep emotion, but this would have been big laughs. Now it will never happen." --Michael Patrick King "Sex and the City" executive producer on actress Kim Cattrall's decision to not sign on for a "Sex" movie TRANSLATION: "From now until eternity, I'm going to trash Kim Cattrall with pathos and deep emotion." ---------- Edited by RedEye staff (ritaredeye@tribune.com)

The "Sex and the City" movie may not be off to such a pleasurable start. The New York Post reports that star Kim Cattrall is already throwing down roadblocks. Cattrall, who is rumored to have a frosty relationship with co-star Sarah Jessica Parker, reportedly won't sign on for the movie unless she signs off on the script and the final choice for director. But an HBO spokesman shrugged off the rumors: "Far too much has been made about Sarah Jessica and Kim. If there was such animosity, there wouldn't be a movie."

"They can make up plots for the movie and send them to HBO," "Sex and the City" star Cynthia Nixon said, according to espn.com's Page 3. She was asked what women could do on Sundays now that the show has ended. Said Kim Cattrall, "They can actually have sex." ---------- Compiled from RedEye news services by Leo Ebersole (lebersole@tribune.com) and Curt Wagner (cwwagner@tribune.com)

Some television shows become celebrated because of great writing and acting and, in the best cases, a timelessness. Others make it primarily because, no matter how many of those qualities they do or don't have, they fill a certain void. "Sex and the City," which will end its run of original episodes after six seasons Sunday (8 p.m., HBO), was one of the latter, an example of a demographic and chronological bull's-eye pierced by a stiletto heel. When New York City sex columnist Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker)

The flirtatious foursome of HBO's "Sex and the City" won't necessarily say goodbye after the series ends Sunday. As the final episode approaches, talk has turned to a big-screen version of the sexed-up comedy, according to industry sources. "Sex" follows the big city adventures of the post-feminist Carrie, Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte, played by Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, Kim Cattrall and Kristin Davis, respectively. Michael Patrick King, the series' writer, director and executive producer, is writing a feature-length script that is expected to be finished in May. Although no start date has been set for production yet, negotiations have begun for the four lead stars to reprise their roles for the film.

So from now on, as far as Justin Timberlake is concerned, it's "Miss Jackson." Oh, you nasty boy, Justin. Seriously, before Sunday night, did you ever think that any Jackson could have a worse winter of 2004 than Michael? Or that the tuck rule should be applied to the Super Bowl halftime show? If there's a Jackson performing at next year's Super Bowl, I'm betting on Alan. We should feel some empathy for Janet. After all, it's not as if we've ever seen a CD cover or video that exploits her cleavage.

HBO's "Sex and the City" has entered the home stretch--the first of the final eight episodes begins at 8 p.m. Sunday--and it's neither limping nor sprinting to the finish line. The show picks up with Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) and company in their usual relationship hodgepodge. Charlotte (Kristin Davis) is married, Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) has gotten back together with Steve, Samantha (Kim Cattrall) is flinging with her young boy toy, and Carrie is seeing an older Russian artist, played ably and romantically by Mikhail Baryshnikov.

It was no doubt your first haircut: that face-framing set of bangs. Probably trimmed by mom using her sewing scissors, probably accompanied by pigtails or a pony. Well it's time to go back to the future, girls. Break out the scissors (but hold the pigtails) because bangs are back. That sweet, innocent, girlish hair "do" is all the rage with some of Hollywood's hottest stars. Catherine Zeta-Jones sported new, totally tolerable bangs at the premiere of "Intolerable Cruelty." Britney Spears got in the zone with sassy bangs on "Saturday Night Live."
